Vegas 1976

Doesn't even look like the same town!

Later part of the clip - looking toward CP and Flamingo with no large structures around - pretty striking compared to today!
My 1st trip to Vegas was in May of 76'. It has been amazing to watch the transformation, but I miss the old Vegas, when you could park your car in front of the Stardust. The strip was so open you could see from one end to the other. Now with every casino built out to the street you can't see the next block.

Pretty cool video. Did you notice that Phillips 66 gas station on the Strip, next door to the Stardust?
